Rising above a hill in Montreal known as Mount Royal, there stands one of the largest cathedrals in the world – the Oratory of Saint Joseph. Its great height of 361 feet is matched by its massive girth, which is large enough to hold within itself many of the world largest shrines. If one were to ask who built this magnificent house of God, he would be told “Brother André.”

Small in stature, unassuming in appearance and manner, Brother André Bessette was great in the Kingdom of God. On October 17th the Catholic Church will canonize this unassuming porter whose miraculous ministry to the sick and needy earned him the title “the miracle man of Montreal.”
